I'm guessing the only way to get good photos of the secretly Least Bitterns is find a stupid juvenile.

    Thanks Ric, the young ones usually stay deep in the grass. Got lucky. Last week spotted whole family out at the edge with a scope.

    Congrats Allen on capturing a very uncooperative subject. Even better you had a whole family out in the open.

    How many photographers does it take to change a light bulb? 50. One to change the bulb, and forty-nine to say, "I could have done that better!"
